Hey, I have a set of ground control coilovers on KYB GR-2's. It rides great. The shocks are OEM replacement, so they ride well, coupled with the stiff ground controls it comes out rather comfortable. What coilovers are you going with?
Yes, a camber kit is in order when you do this. I barely lowered my car with the coilovers and still had a bit of camber wear to the inside edge of the tires. You can find them on eibach's website (I think) and probably on NOPI and sites like that. -------------------- 1991 MR2 - T-tops - Crimson Red - Gen3 3SGTE - Lots of money

cheap springs are.... well.. exactly that. You'll get a terrible ride from a cheap spring.

I got them on clearance for 319 shipped. 360 is a good deal. Thats 40 bucks off. I had a friend (who has a shop) install them. When looking around I was quoted anywhere from 75 - 150 for install.

ok so when i order them they ask wut shocks i have. i just bought some kyb gr2's and they are, if im not wrong, just like an oem replacement, just like the stock shocks/struts right? theres an option to choose stock shocks or "kyb". theres also a "kyb agx" option, so i dont know which one to choose because i dont see a "kyb gr2" option. so should i choose the "kyb" (not "kyb gr2") or stock option?
ediy: nvm. i got these http://www.sportcompactonly.com/Toyota/Cel...143_vy-1995.htm thx for the help This post has been edited by hashmaster52: Aug 22, 2007 - 1:30 PM |
